The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) Index closed at 1,293.40 today (September 9), down 0.40 points or 0.03 per cent. Total transactions amounted to Bt47.5 billion with an index high of 1,295.55 and a low of 1,276.38.

In the morning session, an analyst at Krungsri Securities expected the index to fall to between 1,275 and 1,280 points due to uncertainty over the US-China trade war after US President Donald Trump proposed decoupling the US economy from China’s.

Meanwhile, the low oil price and a halt to Oxford University’s phase three trial of a Covid-19 vaccine will pressure the index, the analyst said.

The 10 stocks with the highest trade value today were PTT, PTTEP, CPALL, BAM, CPF, AOT, SAWAD, MINT, KBANK and SCC.

As of 4.30pm, the price of oil rose by US$0.61 or 1.66 per cent to $37.37 per barrel, while gold dropped by $5.10 or 0.26 per cent, to $1,938.10 per ounce.
